My Tag I created to go with the Knitted Gift I made Click photo to enlarge detail. |
Totally out of my comfort zone but I love the Tag |
I LOVE the Tattered Pinecone die! |
I cut out the Tattered Pinecone die 3 times and 1 Pine Tree |
Using Distress Crackle Paint Clear Rock Candy apply a generous amount and let dry. |
I used Faded Jeans, Dusty Concord and Picket Fence Distress Stains |
I dabbed my colors... spritzed my Tag & Flowers with water & Swirled thru the colors |
This is what it looked like after I was done Swirling thru the colors |
I then Spritzed with Perfect Pearls Mist Perfect Pearls color |
I cut SnowFlurries Border out of a Spellbinders Package and dabbed with Pearl Dabber |
I inked my stamp with Dusty Concord Distress Stain and Stamped next to my Flurries border |
I colored my boughs, pine tree and white Ribbon with Shabby Shutters Stain |
After that dried I added Picket Fence Stain ontop LOVE THIS! |
Then I assembled my pine cones (can make roses also out of this die) |
Then I colored more white ribbon with Dusty Concord and assembled my Tag |
I hope you love my Tag as much as I loved creating it |

Love the golds with the silvery grays. Nice job!
Cindy, anyone would be thrilled to receive your tag, let alone the hand-knitted gift you made. When I ordered the re-inkers, I thought that I had everything I needed. And now I see that I "need" the stains. Will my want list ever be finished? I guess not.

I could see those pine boughs being used to make reindeer antlers all glossied up. I love using dies and stamps for things they originally aren't supposed to be. Cute stuff.
